About this Presentation
This presentation describes the use of Inherent Simplicity software in a job shop environment. The flow is from design/engineering to production to integration/assembly. One implementation was for a die manufacturing with each die being different with approximately 1000 manufacturing orders on the floor at one time. The problems include: the integration process takes a long time; the integration might require rework in an unknown amount; and peaks in design and integration causes bad multitasking. The design/engineering and the integration/assembly areas could be treated as a project environment (critical chain (CC) project management) and the production as a production application (drum buffer rope, DBR). Neither approach CC or DBR solved all existing problems. Most of the problems and delays occur at integration/assembly. Therefore three buffers were used; one for each area (design, production, and integration).
